A few whiles ago I wrote a clean interlude and sumkinduva outro solo for S.H. Arkfister, but apparently forgot to upload it here for everyone to enjoy. So enjoy! … Or else. In other related news, the lyrics for S.H. Arkfister are pretty much finished and Ari’s melodies are barely legal in their awesomeness, so expect some interesting updates in the not-so-far future.

Had some fun times at Ari’s place recording vocals for Stillborn yesterday! After some intensive 3 hours of recording we decided to call it a night and continue later. Next time we’ll record in the sauna and get an even hotter and warmer sound. Just remember to heat it up before I arrive. 🙂

So once upon a time me, Ari and Neven started practicing the acoustic version of Zakk Wylde’s Stillborn. A lot of time has passed since then, but a few months ago we decided with Ari to record our version and maybe make it something more than a bare bones acoustic version. Soon we had recruited Pate to be our drummer (yea, no one saw that one coming…) and Miiro to play some guitar parts!

Today we recorded guitars at my place, after recording the drums maybe a week ago (?) at our practice flat… The second solo is still unfinished (my solo, didn’t have the patience today to improwrite something) and we still haven’t recorded vocals, but we’ll get on it in the near future. I PROMISE! I’m really happy with the guitar sounds, but the low end might turn out to be troublesome in the mix..

P.S.: Vocals will be recorded next week, so stay tuned!

UPDATE 15.08.2010!

Yet another version. The drums have now been resampled! I’m quite happy with ze sounds. Tomorrow I’ll rerecord my solo (if I have the time) and go to Ari’s place and record vowels and consonants in rapid succession.

Yes! Another version of Makeshift, recorded at the practice flat with Miiro and Pate. Yes, the ending is a bit sketchy. That’s my guitar to the left, Miiro’s to the right and Pate on the drums. Feel free to add comments, by the way. All I’ve been getting is spam comments lately. 😀

New song in the works! Something we’ve been jamming with Pate a few times. Seems to fall in the same category as our other recent songs, some kind of prog rock or something. Still needs a loooot of work, but that’s what summer vacations are for.
